Calwidget is a nice calendar widget, fully adjustable sizes and transparency too. (And it's free)

And what's that calendar?

I've been after one that looks like the HTC 4x1 calendar but with more than one event but can't find any!
I'll even pay up to £1

Link to the yr.no Weather Widgets apk installer. It's a free app, so I can't see any reason this can't be posted?

If i upload spreadsheets from my work pc to dropbox, can i then access AND edit them on my phone, then re-save them to dropbox ?

I can open them on my phone, but cant seem to edit anything. :confused:

It's a custom launcher called 'Launcher Pro' you can get it free from the market.

Edit - installed it but now my cool clock weather thing has gone, how can I get it back?

Sorry I'm an Android noob lol

iMacMart · 1 Jun 2010 at 21:55

I've rooted my Desire and paid for setcpu but it's not showing as a supported handset once installed?

Anyone else got it on their rooted Desire?

Nevermind sorted it

Basically the launcher replaces the home screens.

You'll have to re-add your shortcuts and widgets for your new home screens.

There are also more configurable options if you press the options button, then settings.

If you press your home button it should be prompting you what you want to complete the action with: the standard launcher, or launcher pro. If you choose the standard launcher you will have all your shortcuts and widgets back.
